Hello, I am trying to get a clear answer on if a DOD claim you can have multiple items deeming you “unfit for duty” resulting in a med board or if it is 1 sole disability that they claim as unfit for duty for the DOD.
 
Has to be at least one condition that makes you unfit.
 
Each service has guidance on what contentions are unfitting. The service is suppose to follow its own guidance. Thus they can find a member fit or unfit (for one or more conditions).
 
@chaplaincharlie if I get a med board referral for my back, is my back the only unfitting condition I could have as far as DoD percentages or can the C&P find more to apply towards the DoD percentage?
 
All contentions must be considered. This is not always done by the IPEB and that is one of several reasons why people sometimes appeal to the FPEB.
